The Apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene plays a crucial role in fat metabolism by assisting in the removal of cholesterol from the bloodstream. It exists in three primary forms: E2, E3, and E4.
The E4 variant of the APOE gene is linked to higher levels of plasma cholesterol and triglycerides, along with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases, including heart attacks and strokes caused by atherosclerosis, insulin resistance, and Alzheimer's disease. However, carrying the E4 genotype is just one of many risk factors and doesn’t guarantee the development of these conditions.
In addition to APOE, this test evaluates genes related to methylation, inflammation, toxicity, and neuroprotection, empowering individuals to take proactive steps through personalized nutrition and lifestyle changes to optimize long-term health.
Genes Included:
Lipid Metabolism: APOE
Methylation: MTHFR
Inflammation: IFNG and TNF
Detoxification: GSTM1, GSTT1 and GSTP1
Neuroprotection: BDNF
The package includes
Lifecode Gx DNA test kit
Lifecode Gx APOE Report (PDF)
List of recommended foods & supplements to support genetic pathways listed in the Reports
Meal plan & recipes personalised to accomodate any relevant diets e.g. vegetarian, vegan etc (Please use the contact form with any dietary requirements you wish to be considered)
Please read this document before purchasing. It contains terms, conditions and more details of what to expect.
